Ghee is one of the most easily available products in India that contains the goodness of cow’s milk along with several vitamins and antioxidants. This ‘liquid gold’ has several health benefits to its name. It contains a major amount of Vitamin A which helps build immunity. It generates heat in the body and its anti-bacterial properties help fight infections, flus and cold. It also enhances digestion and produces more energy in the body. Aren’t all of these health benefits particularly good for growing children?

Children need foods that are nourishing as they develop, especially babies and toddlers. Ghee not only makes their immunity stronger and keeps them safe from infections, it also enhances their heart health and even nourishes their skin and hair! The good fats present in ghee help develop their bodies and make them look healthy too.

 Aashirvaad Svasti Pure Cow Ghee is rich in nutrients and minerals with a relatively low ghee price too. This ghee product is made with the SloCook technology. In this method, the ghee is made after heating unsalted butter for 3.5 hours by gradually increasing the heat. This method results in golden granular ghee that is of the highest quality and richest aroma.
